My health

So I have been diagnosed with GERDs. Never saw that comming for 27 years.After several tests my doctor thinks I may have IBS. Now I haven't had every test out there but I kind of want to just so I know 100% it's IBS. 

Re: My health

  • Well, it's good to have a diagnosis so that you can start treating it. GERD is pretty common. Annoying, but treatable. I have GERD and LPRD. Lost a ton of weight 6 years ago before it was under control. I couldn't keep anything down. But after figuring out when I was having flare ups and how to control them, things are much better now.

    IBS is definitely trickier though. I hope that it ends up not being that for you! And I hope that you feel better soon!

  • I'm glad you have a diagnosis so you can treat it! GERD is really common so hopefully you'll be able to get it under control and be good to go.

    IBS is definitely more tricky but once you know what triggers you, hopefully you'll be feeling a lot better

  • Glad you finally have a diagnosis.  I hope this means you'll be able to start treating it for real and start feeling better soon!

    Glad they are figuring things out for you!  Hopefully then you'll be able to determine what triggers it and can start feeling better.  They think I have some type of IBS.. after a year of tests they couldn't pinpoint anything.  It's no fun!  Especially when you don't know what's wrong, or what causes it!  Good luck!

  • Glad you have a diagnosis - I know the feeling of waiting to know what's wrong with you. Hope your treatments help you feel much better soon.
  • Ditto all of the above, and I hope they can for sure nail down the IBS diagnosis!
